Section seven provides forthe ex- penses by assessing them on the several seceded States, Section eight provides for the formation of military organizations among the freedmem, Seo- tion nine declares that any person who shail maltreat or abuse a froedman shall be summarily pantshed therefor. An exciting debate on the report of the committee arose, in which several colored preachers and Iaymen took part, Rev, Mr. Dixon opposed the report and the recom- mendations of the committee, on the ground that they wore similar in import to the bill which President John- son bad just vetoed, and he said he did not biemp bim for vetoing it. We have had enough of the Freedmen Rurean; no prejadice or caste feeling ean keep the hack man down in the States where the constitutional amend- ment has been adopted. Tho Freedmen’s Burean bill would have made the colored men paupers and beg living upon the government. Several colored speakers followed Mr, Dixon, but all seemed unqatenous in oppo. sing his views, The meeting adjourned for one » when they will meet in the Prince street colored church, jon Jubilee in Nashville. Nasuvinur, Feb, 22, 1866. ‘The colored population of this city celebrated the ant versagy of the emancipation proclamation to-day by ® large procession, consisting of two regiments of colored soldiers and two thousand colored people. After their parade they were addressed by Governor Brownlow, who congratulated them upon their emancl- pation, At the conelusion of Governor Brownlow's speceh they wore addressed by several colored orators, Everything passed off quietly and im the best possible i 5 manner. Emancipat heid by six engravers, workmen of the company, amount- inggpone hundred shares, Danforth’s whol» purchases Widest nied to Uires hundred. and thirty-six shares, increasing his stock in the company to four hundred and sixty-seven shares. That after such purchases, and to cover up and protect hie frauds, Danforth placed them all in tho hands of the defendant, James A. Williamson, o confidential friend of the former, and that Williamson know of those frauds, Mr. Carpeater now petitions that said sale by him to Danforth, and all assignments to Williamson, may bo adjedged null and vod, and that the one hundr d and thirty-six sbarea may ordered to be delivered up to the plaint ff. together with all the dividends, and that defendant pay to plaintiff $150,000—his damage in th premises. ‘THR DEFENCE, Mr. Danforth sets forth a very lengthy answer to tho complaint of Mr, Carp He admits the purchase of the one hundred and thirty-stx sharos of stock, and after contradicting several points in the complaint, goes on to make the following statement:—The department in which defendant was employed was that in which plates for printing are made by jtransfer from dies or rolis, which i rly mechanical, and he hud no with the office where the accounts of the company Were kept; the busine rod by its persons ephard and ¢ engaged oxel: svely lepartmnents. Mr, Danforth admits pwhing shares in tie company, eof them. ‘hat the fact and that li all had t condition , that any was maintained as to the business; that al t holders could ascertain the necessary infornation by ap- ng to the omyany.

These facts were talked about between plainti aud defendant—the price of the stock being merely speculative, Mr. Danforth denies all purposes of fraud in the purchase of the stock, as set down in the complaint of Mr. Carpenter, and alleges the cireurstances of the pur- chase to ‘be ae follows:—In December, 1862, he act plaintiff in the street, who remarked that he we de. sirous of #elding Mr. Glover's stock, and that on asP!ying. to the officers of the company they would not g¥r tore than its par value. He (Danforth) then ag th Wanted to some tore stock, and that bt W on plainti® in a short time, which he did oles kixty dollars per share, | wh ho consi fair and reasonable price. Plainti? then said he wonld make seme further mqniries relative to the stock, which he did, and retarned on the 2tth of December, when the sale wae made. The stock was subsequently transferred to Mr. James A. William. on to the crodit of Mr. Danforth. He requested plaintit” alter the sale to write a letter stating the circumstances under which the stock was purchased. This letter ts at- tached to the answer, and corroborates in many points the statements made by Mr. Danforth as to the purchase ofthe stock. On the Sist of January, 1962, and not be. fore, astatement of the condition of the’ affairs of the canpany, up to the dist of December, 1862, war mde. ‘By this statement was shown a nomi. na surplus of the assets the company ov its abilities of $197,184 63, of which defendant aware, and had no means of ascer. tahing — The money on which dividends were paid was reeived from the work of the Treasury Departinent, and wa received after the sale of the stock. The first order frm the Treasury Department was given in the latter prt of July, 1862, and directed the making of only ono 8¢ of plates for tho denominations of five, ten, twenty. fiv and fifty cent notes; such orders subsequently in. chased to such an extent that in January, February, ' any dividene thereto which Was not Wuhin re: Mrch and April, 1863, after defendant pu chased stock from_ plaintiff, the com; de. Nered to the Treasury Department 4,774,284 fipressions, of 89,785,024 of such notes. No areement was made as to price with the Sec: hor aything known in relation thereto, anti a bill been feived for work executed to October 31, 1862. In con- Ph! these orders the company made during the year from Jansary 1to June 30, 1863, $258, 327047, Sag a. the whole amount of the large dividends ich, in May and June, 1863, and in Juty, 1864, were by the company upon its stock. Answer of Mn Danforth further goes on to stato Hongth the financial condition of the company and the ature of the work in which it was engag d. Mr. James A. Williatason, the other defendant in this stion, answors that he hoids the stock in trust for Mr. santo! and that he is merely acting as it for him, From the above statements it is apparent that the ac- ‘on i¢ simply against Mr, Danforth as holding stocks of | was, of course, not made in the rather as an intimation for the « and the District Attorney; but T will take all the risk of appeals, whether mado ‘by the gentleman of by the friends, or by the friends without the gontieman's con- currence, or by the gentleman without the friends’ con currence Tt xeems to me eminently Just and proper that in this conntry, as in Engiand, there should be prompt adininistralion of criminal justices wh can do so, Men cannot be sentenced to be han: spot in this State; un/ortunately samo little preliminaries of making sheritfs’ warrants and things of that kind have ut avenience of the Court to be don How often we readin the Euylish pape “upon tho verdict coming in the. judge assumed the black cap and inmediatety be tence,” What an effect has that dienca and upon the publy gentleman says hi 4 mot wish ai to come to the Dsiret Attorney. re jnd'ce comes tome, If Teared for that, T would not ho'd this office: Yt 1 docare for the pro} dice that comes ty th of public justice, and I believe that public justicn ts best maintained ‘n that country which follows punishment swift on Lhe pnviction, whether it be for petty or for n aed y r.
